Come November, Republican Rep. Pat Tiberi, a seven-term incumbent in a GOP-leaning district, is set to face two little-known, meagerly funded challengers, and for that race, the Genoa Township lawmaker has already raised and spent more campaign cash than any other House member in Ohio, except Speaker John Boehner.

Tiberi scooped up more than $1.7 million in 2013 - a fundraising pace of nearly $5,000 per day. And he kicked off 2014 with a war chest of more than $2.5 million, according to his latest campaign finance reports.
